2 The Rio Grande Valley and Sangre de Cristo Mountains of northeastern New Mexico have long cradled a unique blend of three cultures and traditions. Native American, Spanish and Anglo influences have all contributed to the stunning art, architecture and lifestyle of Santa Fe, Taos and the surrounding region. This amazing amalgam of cultures has drawn artists from around the world to offer their own contributions to the area s artistic heritage. On this program you ll join art professor Wanda Corn and local experts from the museums, churches, galleries, craft shops and markets that have made this region one of America s most important, vibrant and beloved art scenes. Brett S. Thompson, 83, Director, Stanford Travel/Study ranchos de taos Highlights Visit the home and studio of Georgia O Keeffe in Abiquiu, where she created many of the paintings that made her America s greatest female artist. Marvel at the ancient Anasazi cliff dwellings in Bandelier National Monument. Explore the dazzling galleries, unique shops and fine restaurants that line Santa Fe s renowned Canyon Road.

Once in Taos, check in to our hotel with its beautiful grounds, then gather for a welcome reception and dinner. EL MONTE SAGRADO RESORT (D) Thursday, May 10 TAOS Visit the Harwood Museum, with its gallery dedicated to the Taos Society of Artists and its new wing that houses the works of contemporary artist, Agnes Martin. After lunch on our own, visit the Millicent Rogers Museum to view its superb collection of Indian and Spanish art gathered by the iconoclastic heiress of the Standard Oil fortune. Continue to Taos Pueblo, home of the Taos Indians. Built more than 500 years ago and considered by many to be one of the most beautiful structures in the world, it exemplifies architectural forms dating back to prehistoric times. We have unique access to the Pueblo, meeting with a family still living traditionally within its adobe walls. EL MONTE SAGRADO RESORT (B) Friday, May 11 TAOS / CHIMAYO / SANTA FE Depart this morning for Santa Fe, heading south via the historic High Road after stopping first at the tiny village of Ranchos de Taos just south of Taos to view the beautiful adobe church that inspired Georgia O Keeffe, Paul Strand, and many other painters and photographers. Wending our way along the High Road through charming Hispanic towns in the shadow of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, visit Irvin Trujillo, a 7th-generation master weaver, who demonstrates his technique for us and discusses traditional designs. After lunch at Rancho de Chimayo, visit the Sanctuario de Chimayo, one of New Mexico s oldest churches and known as the Lourdes of the Southwest. Pilgrims come from far and wide to partake of its soil, believed to have curative powers. Continue to Santa Fe and check in to our hotel near the Plaza. Dinner and the remainder of the evening are at leisure. INN ON THE ALAMEDA (B,L) Saturday, May 12 SANTA FE This morning s walking tour of Santa Fe gives us an introduction to its unique history, reflected in everything from its museums and galleries to its architectural treasures.

INN ON THE ALAMEDA (B) Tuesday, May 15 SANTA FE / ABIQUIU This morning ride through stunning red-rock butte and canyon country to the tiny village of Abiquiu. Georgia O'Keeffe lived out her last days here, creating images of that landscape, which, for many, capture the essence of the Southwest. After lunch at the rustic Abiquiu Inn, visit her home and studio. Return to Santa Fe for an evening at leisure. INN ON THE ALAMEDA (B,L) Wednesday, May 16 SANTA FE Take a morning excursion to Santa Fe s renowned hilltop museum complex, starting at the Folk Art Museum, which houses one of the most extensive collections of folk arts and crafts in the world.

After lunch on our own, we have free time to visit Canyon Road again or head back to the Plaza and view some of the 17th-century structures found near the end of the Santa Fe Trail, the wagon trail that linked Santa Fe and Kansas City, Missouri, in the 1800s.
